How to Make Chocolate Coffee Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Position oven rack to the second-lowest position.
  3. Lightly grease or line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, ½ cup vegetable shortening, ¾ cup packed light brown sugar, and ½ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  5. Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon maple extract (or 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract).
  6. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, beating until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  8. Stir in 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and ½ cup chopped walnuts (or your favorite nuts).
  9. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
  10. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until edges are set and centers are still slightly soft. (Start checking at 8 minutes.)
  11. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
